Targeted Donation Ideas

SciComm Diversity Travel Fellowship

Please donate to sustain the 3rd year of our Science Communication (SciComm) Diversity Travel Fellowship. The first 2 years were generously funded by an Idea grant from the National Association of Science Writers. However, for 2016 we’re on our own to raise funds for 6 fellowships at $1,000 each. These monies will send minority journalists/communicators to the annual ScienceWriters #SciWri16 conference for professional development and mentoring. Any additional funds raised will be used to offset the conference expenses of the 5 speakers on our #SciWri16 panel Practical Strategies for Science & Health Journalism Diversity.

Roca’s Bioinformatics Research Side Gig

DiverseScholar Executive Director, Alberto Roca, is a trained biochemist who learned bioinformatics in the 1990’s when it was just called “sequence analysis”. He still maintains a small “independent scientist”, award-winning research project (ProfileGrid.org) to keep these skills intact and to maintain credibility among academics. See the latest published manuscripts in F1000Research and BMC Proceedings. Please donate generously to help off-set research expenses such as open access charges and traveling to VIZBI/BioVis scientific conferences. Thanks!

Sponsor a Recruiting CV book

Please donate to sponsor a Gold level Institutional Subscription to designate copies of our Doctoral Directory CV database to the institution of your choosing.
